People spend about as much time separating Colwood from Langford as they do Colwood from View Royal.

The best thing about it is Langford builds high density right up to the Borders of its neighbours not only with Colwood but also with Metchosin. Its good to see such a growing community using the land to bring people into its area. The surrounding communities a falling behind by leaps and bounds.Excellent way to grow a community.

I agree but I do not think it woudl drive up the cost too much due to the fact in the low lying areas of Langford such as this site there is no bedrock. It is all glacial till easy to excavate and open up. No blasting required . The Glacial till area goes from Langford lake area right out to Royal Bay and bedrock is extremely deep .

Some buildings in Langford in this area of overburden are being built with UG parking the most recent on Hockley in the area of the fountain

What are Langford's high density developments along the Metchosin border? I'm drawing a blank here.

Both Colwood and Langford seem to approve similar density along each others borders, I think. Colwood would have been way ahead had Capital City Centre made good on its approved plans.

Know it all.Citified.ca is Victoria's most comprehensive research resource for new-build homes and commercial spaces.

Along Winter Rd off Happy Valley Rd high density housing is one example and there will be more to come.

This is one example Mike. Metchosin is all acreages and they were pissed off at Langford allowing this kind of density at their border which is rural/semi rural/ Langford basically told them to pound sand and went ahead with the zoning.

The right side of my red line is on the border the left side is just below the back fences of those homes are smack dab on the border the left side of my red line is too far south
